In commitf84af32cbc("net: ip_queue_rcv_skb() helper") I dropped the skb dst in tcp_data_queue(). This only dealt with so-called TCP input slow path. When fast path is taken, tcp_rcv_established() calls tcp_queue_rcv() while skb still has a dst. This was mostly fine, because most dsts at this point are not refcounted (thanks to early demux) However, TCP packets sent over loopback have refcounted dst. Then commit68822bdf76("net: generalize skb freeing deferral to per-cpu lists") came and had the effect of delaying skb freeing for an arbitrary time. If during this time the involved netns is dismantled, cleanup_net() frees the struct net with embedded net->ipv6.ip6_dst_ops. Then when eventually dst_destroy_rcu() is called, if (dst->ops->destroy) ... triggers an use-after-free. It is not clear if ip6_route_net_exit() lacks a rcu_barrier() as syzbot reported similar issues before the blamed commit.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
